It's definitely a very unhealthy state....even if it isn't anorexia......it is still not safe to get into the state of not eating.....I have been there several times for several different reasons....& it isn't healthy.

It is good to have the support of your family & Dr's who can point you in the right direction for food. The important thing is to find a weight that you are comfortable at & that is healthy.....sometimes that can be right on the borderline for awhile......but you need to be healthy above all else.

When you get to the point of not eating, that can become a snowball effect.....because when you try to eat after not eating, I always felt sick, & wouldn't eat because I felt sick.

If you read some of my posts....I have been hospitalized for anorexia several times.....& it isn't plesant......so take care of yourself before ever getting to that point....& talking to your family is probably the best place to start,
